Promotions Program Gives the Web and Cash Away

Home maintenance Web site Ourhouse.com Inc. yesterday launched a customer acquisition program that offers free Internet service and cash giveaways through sweepstakes firm iWon.com Inc. Financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

Web users can access the free Internet service in two ways. The software can be downloaded through links at Ourhouse.com and iWon.com or consumers can wait until mid-June when the free service on CD becomes available at Ace Hardware outlets and through mail requests made online.

Customers at Ourhouse.com, Evanston, IL, will be eligible to win a cash giveaway that doubles with every purchase. iWon.com, Irvington, NY, had signed an earlier agreement with Internet service provider Spinway.com, which made the Web giveaway possible.
